Durag Niwas Guest House offers family rooms with private bathrooms, air-conditioning, and free WiFi. Each room includes a balcony or terrace, ensuring a pleasant stay. Rooms are spacious and come with colorful windows, though some lack natural light and wardrobes.

The family-friendly restaurant serves Chinese, British, French, and Indian cuisines in a traditional ambience. Breakfast options include continental, buffet, and full English/Irish, catering to vegetarian, gluten-free, and vegan diets. Food preparation uses fresh ingredients, and there is a rooftop cafe offering Indian food.
